Since this is under football, I will relate a Bear Bryant quip. I forget who they were playing but Bama was ahead under 7 points and was running out the clock near the other team's end zone. Bama coaching staff called for a running play with the second string quartberback in the game. I guess the young man had visions of stardom dancing in his head because he checked off the play to a pass call. Of course, he threw an interception that was gathered in by the fastest man on the opposing team. The player was running down the sidelines for an apparent touchdown when the BAMA quarterback tackled him from behind.
After the game they asked Coach Bryant about the incident and how did his quarterback catch the fastest guy on the other team. The Bear quipped, 'Well you have to understand that the defender was running for a touchdown but my guy was running for his life!'

My Favorite quote, which has nothing to do with american football, is:
"The ability to speak does not make you intelligent."
The wonderful thing about that quote is it can be used for soooooo many people in the world and on these forums. It's from Star Wars Episode I: The Phantom Menace. Jedi Knight Qui-Gon speaking to Jar-Jar the first time they meet.

Al Pacino in Any Given Sunday:
You find out life's this game of inches. And so is football. Because in either game, life or football, the margin for error is so small. I mean... one half a step too late or too early and you don't quite make it. One half second too slow too fast, you don't quite catch it. The inches we need are everywhere around us. They are in every break of the game, every minute, every second. On this team, we fight for that inch. On this team, we tear ourselves and everyone else around us to pieces for that inch. We claw with our fingernails for that inch. Because we know when we add up all those inches, that's gonna make the f***ing difference between winning and losing! Between living and dying! I'll tell you this - in any fight, its the guy whose willing to die who's gonna win that inch. And I know if I'm going to have any life anymore, it's because I'm still willing to fight and die for that inch. Because that's what living is! The 6 inches in front of your face...

When John McKay coached the expansion Buccaneers in the 70's, he was always good for a one-liner or two.
When asked about his team's execution, "I think it's an excellent idea."
After a particularly eggregious loss, "Hit the showers, those of you who think you need one."
